Arbuscular Mycorrhizae in Malagasy Cropping Systems

Biological Agriculture & Horticulture, 2008
ABSTRACT In Madagascar, rice production is low (2 t ha−1) and does not cover the needs of the population. To satisfy the food requirements, there is a need to develop agriculture on highland areas called “tanety”. Soils of tanety have low nutrients availability, particularly phosphorus which is the main plant growth limiting factor (soil solution

The role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the competition between invasive and native plants depends on the soil nitrogen form

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant invasion and nitrogen (N) deposition are escalating global change threats. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are increasingly recognized as critical mediators of plant invasion success, largely through their role in enhancing host nutrient acquisition.

Effects of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza on Osmotic Adjustment and Photosynthetic Physiology of Maize Seedlings in Black Soils Region of Northeast China

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology
To investigate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi on maize growth, osmoregulation substances and photosynthetic physiology, a popular maize variety ZD 958 was measured under potted condition.

Soil legacy effects on a temperate tree species depend on the mycorrhizal types and phylogenetic distance of the conditioning trees

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Associations of trees with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi often shape distinct microbial communities in soils. Whether this distinction can create different soil legacies and to what extent such legacies are correlated to phylogenetic ...

Growth model for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

, 2007
In order to quantify the contribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi to plant phosphorus nutrition, the development and extent of the external fungal mycelium and its nutrient uptake capacity are of particular importance.

Melatonin seed priming: A climate‐smart, green strategy to enhance abiotic stress tolerance in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes how melatonin seed priming preconditions seeds to enhance tolerance against diverse abiotic stresses. It highlights the underlying mechanisms and proposes an integrative roadmap of advanced molecular and breeding tools to design next‐generation, stress‐smart plants.

Soil phosphorus drives subcontinental patterns of carbon isotope discrimination across Australia

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Several transects have been established to study the sensitivity of carbon isotope discrimination (Δ13C) in woody plants to mean annual precipitation (MAP) across Australia. These have shown a surprising divergence in Δ13C‐MAP sensitivity among subcontinental regions.

Fine‐root trait variation in temperate trees follows arc‐shape pattern along deep soil profiles

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Root trait variation along the soil depth profile in four temperate tree species. Summary Roots are plants' interface with the soil, controlling access to water and nutrients. Yet, fine‐root trait variation along deep soil profiles and its functional implications remain poorly understood.

Molecular diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in onion roots from organic and conventional farming systems in the Netherlands

, 2009
Diversity and colonization levels of naturally occurring arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in onion roots were studied to compare organic and conventional farming systems in the Netherlands.
